I HAVE TO SAY I LOVE ALL MY RAIDER NATION, BUT EVERYONE HAS TO ADMIT THAT THEIR HOME SHOULD BE IN LOS ANGELES. LOS ANGELES FANS ARE THE MOST DIE HARD FANS. WE TRULY PUT THE E IN EXTREME. THE FANS OF THE L.A. RAIDERS REALLY MADE THE WHOLE REPUTATION OF WHAT IT IS TODAY. I ATTEND GAMES IN OAKLAND AND ALTHOUGH THEY ARE EXCITING THEY ARE NOTHING LIKE THEY WERE IN THE L.A. COLISEUM. LOS ANGELES DID SOMETHING FOR THE RAIDERS AND AL DAVIS THAT OAKLAND COULD NOT AND ISN’T DOING FOR THEM RIGHT NOW. EVERYONE WATCHING LAST NIGHT CAN NOT DENY IT AND EVEN AL DAVIS EXPRESSED IT WHEN HE SAID L.A. CAN COME KNOCKING ON THE DOOR AS SOON AS WE GET A STADIUM BUILT. HE KNOWS THAT L.A. IS WHERE HE AND THE TEAM TRULY WANTS TO BE. I AGREE WE ALL LOVE THE SILVER AND BLACK BUT ALL OF YOU IN OAKLAND NEED TO REALIZE THAT IF YOU TRULY WANT THE RAIDERS TO BE SUCCESSFUL AS DAYS OF OLD YOU NEED THEM TO PLAY IN A MARKETABLE CITY,AND A CITY WHERE YOU CAN SELL OUT GAMES AND OAKLAND ISN’T IT! IF THEY WHERE IN L.A. SELL OUTS WOULD BE INEVIDIBLE. THE CITY OF ANGELS BABY THAT’S WHERE THEY NEED TO BE.

It takes a big man to admit when he’s wrong. Al, you are the man.

[...] NFL waivers, at only age 24, indeed confirms (as close as we can reasonable do so, at least) that Lane Kiffin was right. What you may not realize is that — while Kiffin didn’t exactly respect [...]

Jerry said:
There are a lot of reasons why Kiffin got the exit he deserved. He made his feud with Davis more important than the team, selling a team concept to 53 men and then operating in such a way that he could maneuver his way out of the building.

*******

I truly think this is incorrect. I can only judge from the distance but I think Kiffin started behaving like a jerk only after he realized that his opinion was worth sh** in the ears of Al. And this is not only related to the JMR drafting.

….if you don’t think Jason Campbell is a HUGE improvement over Bruce and Russell. In 2009 Jason Campbell amassed 3618 yards, 20 TDs, 226.1 yards a game, and 86.4 QB rating.

Bruce: 1007 yards, 6 TDs, 143.9 yards a game, and 80.6 QB rating.

Russell: 1287, 3 TDs, 107.2 yards a game, and 50 QB rating.

The Redskins gave up 22 sacks last year, we gave up 21. So he did all that with a bad O-line (like ours). That’s an extra 1000 passing yards and twice as many TDs. Consider how many close games we lost last year:

Vs San Diego Loss 24-20
Vs KC Loss 13-10
Vs KC Loss 16-10
Vs SD Loss 24-16

Now if those were wins (which they could have been if we just had a DECENT QB), we would have been 9-7. That’s a HUGE improvement.

Now factor in that this is the best draft I’ve ever witnessed the Raiders have, we are going to be MUCH MUCH BETTER.

Come’On Seymour Bush.
After that 2nd year, everyone knew he was a bust.His character never change, so that meant he was never going to get better. So the celebration is that Al Davis actually made the cut instead making us deal with his mistake because he was too proudful. A team that cant cut thier loses and admit when they were wrong is destined for ruins and thats what we’ve been getting and this is a sign not all hope is lost.
